The Studio In top form large format Following a commission from a collector, I took up the theme of "EN PLEINE FORME" in large format. It's a very round piece. The little one perched on its mother's (or father's!) back gives the piece a playful, airy feel. The "protagonists" in the scene communicate with each other through a play of tender, amused glances. I constantly adjusted the... View
The Studio Embarcation to Kythira Every new exhibition is an adventure. For the catalogue of the Musée de la Côte d’Opale, Christopher, the graphic designer, wanted the photographs taken on the beach in order to illustrate the title of the exhibition Bêtes à Musée, Sculptures in the Open Air. The photographic technique scared me and recreating an atmosphere around my sculptures was a real... View

Clays The three Eves A mother carries her two daughters on her back. It’s up to everyone to imagine what they contemplate together, peacefully, in a beautiful visionary impulse. A better future for their sisters? I like this sentence from Jean Giraudoux: “Adam firmly believes that he was chased out of the earthly paradise. Eve is not sure at all, and acts, in any case, as if... View
Museum acquisitions The octopus / my neighbour From one octopus to another The octopus had always haunted her.

In the human imagination, it is a very disturbing animal. Moreover she had sketched and then sculpted her into a somewhat bigoted woman, as if... View
Bronzes Giraffe and her three daughters €5,900.00 I created this sculpture in memory of my impressions of a girl born in the 1950s.

This bronze animal sculpture was made at the Harze... View

Bronzes Giraffe and her doll €5,900.00 During the Jean -Joseph Carriès exhibition at the Petit Palais, I was very touched by a terracotta “L'Infante” representing a little girl clutching her puppet to the point of breaking it, a fitting expression of the innocently destructive side from childhood.
